My close encounter with Richard Parker
The puppetry in Life of Pi on Broadway is truly a marvel😮
Bengals Tiger, Richard Parker has 3 puppeteers who control his head, heart and hind.
They don’t use mics and are synced together as one, taking cues from sounds and slight movements
Don’t miss your chance to see Life of in Cincinnati!
🗓️Feb 4 - 9, 2025
Based on Yann Martel’s best-selling novel that sold more than 15 million copies and became a worldwide phenomenon.
“LIFE OF PI is an epic story of perseverance and hope that speaks to every generation and “gives new life to Broadway” (The Today Show).
Told with jaw-dropping visuals, world class puppetry and exquisite stagecraft, Lolita Chakrabarti’s stage adaptation of LIFE OF PI creates a breathtaking journey that will leave you filled with awe and joy.”
⏳Performance time - 2hrs, 10mins with 1 intermission
⛔️Recommended for ages 13+ ( It can get intense) Contains some mature content and violence, smoke, haze, flashing lights, strobe lights and loud sounds throughout as well as scenes of animal ferocity and the death of animals, depicted by life-like puppets
I didn’t read the book or watch the movie prior to the show and I thought it was intense and incredible.
I’m still processing a lot of the depth of the story today.

A bucket list adventure riding in the “gunner” seat of a Vietnam era UH-1 “Huey” helicopter with the doors open with Army Aviation Heritage Foundation.
This non-profit tells the U.S. Army Aviation Story by hosting and participating in aircraft and museum tours, school programs, air shows, and other public events across the country.
There are public rides scheduled throughout the year or you can book a private ride.
I met several passengers who purchased their ride as an experience gift to share with a family member who served in the military.
